Review on the Relationship between Corruption and Economic Development and Prospects for the Future
Corruption is not only a global political issue,but also an economic issue that is concerned by all countries.Corruption and economic development affect each other,but opinions vary in the academic circle.It can be extracted two theoretical research frameworks from domestic and international research on the relationship between corruption and economic development,which are direct action model and indirect action model.The paper analyzes the laws and characteristics of relevant empirical research and finds that in the past fifteen years,an increasing number of empirical research has verified the"complexity theory".In addition,the selection of sample range,variable measurement index,parameter estimation method and regression model will have a direct impact on the empirical conclusions.Moreover,the relationship between corruption and economic development also varies in dif-ferent years and countries.Therefore,the relationship between corruption and economic development is a complex and compre-hensive issue,which requires continuous theoretical analysis and empirical testing to discover the law of corruption governance and economic development,then achieve dual goals of suppressing corruption and promoting economic development,and explore opti-mal corruption governance strategies at different stages of economic development.
